Retinitis Pigmentosa Retinitis Pigmentosa is the name given to a group of inherited eye disorders that affect the retina. The retina has rod shaped cells responsible for night vision and seeing in the dim light. The cone-shaped cells are responsible for color vision and brightness Retinitis Pigmentosa has been proven to be progressive‚ destructive‚ hereditary disease that reduces the function of rod-shaped cells. Retinitis Pigmentosa can eventually lead to severe vision loss and blindness

cross-linked section referred to as the bone cement interface. The main limitation in the application of PMMA for this anchorage is that it cannot be utilized in prosthesis adjacent to smooth bone. As a result‚ much of the current research on PMMA is the addition of other compounds to make it bioactive to broaden its applications in prosthesis anchorage. In a study in conducted by Li et al‚ nano-hydroxyapatite coated bone collagen was added to PMMA to make it more

Revision joint replacement is the term given to the process of removing primary prosthesis from a failed artificial joint‚ reconstruction of the pathological condition and implanting new prosthesis to restore normal joint mechanics. Q. Why do original implants wear out? A. The main reasons for implant wear are mal-alignment (less than ideal alignment)‚ poor soft tissue balancing‚ instability
